      @shbatm I’ve moved MagicMIrror to a brand new RPI 4.

      Can you see any reason why 1080i/1080p streams are not showing into your module?

      I can hear them, but not see them. :confused_face:

      This happens both if using omxplayer and VLC.

      Standard resolution streams show up normally.

      @evroom what about your experience?
      Did you get a RPI 4 too?

        That’s sounding like you’re plugged into the wrong HDMI port - make sure you’re using the port closest to the power supply.

        The "E" in "Javascript" stands for "Easy"

          @BKeyport it is already connected there. :D

          Fact is that 1080p videos, streams, etc. work perfectly if running in VLC as standalone.

          The same does NOT happen when using VLC (or OMXplayer) in this module.

            OK, that’s weird (but expected)

            I never could get VLC to work. I can’t recall if OMX was working or not in the last public release, the developer branch was opposite.

            I use OMX independently now, using @evroom 's method, however, that requires the may 2020 update to fix a number of bugs in my case.

              @BKeyport could you please share the link here?

              I would like to give it a try because right now OMXplayer embedded streams are playing in a wrong resize (almost full screen lol). :D

                @Cr4z33 It’s sprinkled throughout this post. This will take you to where I talk about it, Evroom’s convo is earlier, but there’s a link in my post about it. Feel free to use this post for help on this.

                      I am trying to have this module running succesfully in Ubuntu Desktop, but it doesn’t work right now.

                      I ran the bash setup command and choosed the master build (dev build gave the same errors).

                              @sdetweil thanks for helping! :)

                              Last command showed an error that looks like (translated from Italian):

                              cr4z33@Cr4z33-UbuntuDesktop-VM-Synology:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-RTSPStream$ 
ls node_modules/node-rtsp-stream-es6
ls: Cannot access 'node_modules/node-rtsp-stream-es6': File or directory does not exist

                              In fact looking in the node_modules folder there’s no node-rtsp-stream-es6 directory. :thinking_face:

                              I then thought it was a good idea running npm install node-rtsp-stream-es6 in the MMM-RTSPStream directory.
                              The folder was created at last, but then I kept getting errors at MM launch:

                                Problem sorted by manually untarring the module from a previous (RPI4) backup.

                                Basically the module installation in Ubuntu could not be completed properly and therefore a lot of stuff was missing. :)

                                  Hmmm one more issue came out…

                                  While opting to go for Debian 10.x instead of Ubuntu I notice now that the stream window doesn’t go where it should.

                                  Basically I choosed to place it on bottom right, but it pops in a vlc titled window (and in the wrong position) instead. :confused_face:

                                  Here’s the screenshot:

                                    @Cr4z33 RTSPStream uses an external utility to move VNC around the screen, it’s entirely possible that utility doesn’t work in Debian or isn’t installed in your version.

                                    The "E" in "Javascript" stands for "Easy"

                                        This module needs to be fixed asap.

                                        The developer @shbatm seems to have abandoned the project since many weeks/months and the module was a real good add to MagicMirror.

                                        After latest MM upgrades it has broken and now streams come up in weird huge size and in a wrong position (stream position config settings get COMPLETELY ignored).

                                        If someone skilled enough would be willing to post please a fix?

                                        I assume it’s just a matter of some node_helper.js edit, but I have zero knowledge of JavaScript language…

                                        @BKeyport are you able to do that please? :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat:

                                          OK I solved the problem by replacing this module with MMM-FreeboxTV. 👋
